[He absently flicks his bangs out of his face while he considers how to word it.]
I'm not asking you to like me or trust me. After everything that's happened back home, I doubt you could do either. But I am asking you to work with me for a little bit. You want out of here as badly as I do, I'm sure, and we stand a higher chance if we're working together.
I gain nothing if I stab you in the back. I'd actually prefer to keep you alive so you can rejoin your friends and save the world.
[UGH THAT SOUNDS SO GROSS TO ADMIT ALOUD...]
For now what I'm working on is merely an alliance against this experiment. You do want to end this as quickly as possible, don't you?
